Setting up Derby to use your LDAP directory service

Setting up Derby to use your LDAP directory service When specifying LDAP as your authentication service, you must specify what LDAP server to use.

derby.authentication.server
Set the property derby.authentication.server to the URL to the LDAP server. For example:
derby.authentication.server=ldap://godfrey:389/
The LDAP server may be specified using just the server name, the server name and its port number separated by a colon, or a ldap URL. If a full URL is not provided, Derby will by default use unencrypted LDAP - to use SSL encrypted LDAP an URL starting with "ldaps://" must be provided.

Also note that support for ldaps:// URLs requires that Derby runs on Java 1.4.2 or higher.
